FBI Director Kash Patel claimed on Tuesday that his agency, in partnership with other law enforcement partners, foiled an apparent “explosive-drone plot targeting the White House” Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) event on Sunday.

“On June 10, FBI and our law enforcement partners became aware of a potential threat to the UFC America 250 event in Washington, D.C. involving individuals outside of the National Capital Region – and thanks to the rapid action of this FBI, our partners, and the Department of Justice in a multi-state operation, multiple individuals are now in custody and allegedly planned attacks were stopped cold,” Patel wrote in a statement published on social media.

The New York Post also reported Tuesday that “five suspects” were arrested as part of the operation, which was an alleged “multi-phase terror attack allegedly involved using explosive-laden drone aircraft to strike buildings in the vicinity of the event” designed to spark “mass panic and [drive] the fleeing crowd toward a sniper team poised to pick them off,” details reportedly provided by U.S. officials to Fox News.
